Car Just Stops in Sport Mode.....

New issue, wonder if anyone else has seen this....

I was driving around earlier today in SPORT Mode and manually shifting. I have a 30i with 6 speed auto.

Almost every time I came to a stop and dropped the gears to first the car stalled just as I stopped. Several times in a 15 minute period.

Anyone else seen anything similar ???

My tickover is a little lumpier in Sport mode...but it's never stalled. However, mine's a manual and I believe auto's have a faster tickover? Get it checked out...........

Whoa crankshaft ..... sounds serious.......

What is "tickover" ????? never heard that term.....

I will drive it again tomorrow in a similar fashion and if it still does it I will definitely take it back for a service review to see if anything shows up in the computer......

see this thread:

if there is a software fix as Teebone states, then i strongly believe that will solve your issue.
